BOWIE, Md. - About three dozen people were treated for illness during a rally featuring President Barack Obama at Bowie State University.
Prince George's County Fire and EMS spokesman Mark Brady tells WTOP numerous ambulances were sent to the rally after people started fainting and became dizzy.
The problems may have been related to warmer temperatures Thursday. Brady says crowds at the rally were outside and packed shoulder to shoulder.
Two people were taken to the hospital, Brady says. The rest were treated at the scene. A triage area was set up inside the gymnasium at Bowie State.
Obama made the short trip from the nation's capital to neighboring Prince George's County in Maryland in hopes of giving O'Malley, a fellow Democrat, a boost in his rematch with Republican former Gov. Robert Ehrlich. Republicans sensing voter anger are focusing on winning gubernatorial races as well as regaining Congress.

Thats funny because every time I see Obama I feel faint and dizzy also.
Totally understand, if I got near him I'd probably pass out too. He ruins everything else he comes near, why should other's health be any different?
Now when they say, "Obama makes me sick.", no one can call them a liar.
Must have been the Koolaid.
It was the toxic crap coming out of his mouth!
I'm getting ill just reading about him.
Heck even Chuck Cook makes me ill just being around him.
